RISE AGAIN...

Releasing  moments
of time arrested..
Winds of change to
have them return..
Shadows emerge
to darken forever..
Promises forgotten
to haunt and scar..
Faults of bitterness
surge and erode..
Perpetual contentment
abandoned and
forgotten ..
Still there is hope..
Light contains and
succumbs every
dark corner..
Life flourishes from
its wake ..
Water envelopes but
I rise again..
Rise again to
be renewed,
refreshed, revived..
Turn and face a
brand new day ..
